Loch Seaweed

This post is rather late, but this was last week's ABC Challenge: F. I've been dying to jelly sandwich with one of the new Zoya Gloss colors, and was determined to use Elixir Lacquers' We Sisters Three as something other than a simple topper. I chose Zoya Frida, a greenish teal jelly. We Sisters Three is green, silver and holographic glitter. What I like about this combo is that Frida obscures the plain glitter in We Sisters Three and lets the holo glitter shine through. It's like sun sparkling through the seaweed at the bottom of a lake, I love it this way.

This is two coats of Frida, two coats of We Sisters Three and one more coat of Frida.

See what I mean? Look at that depth.

I didn't get a good macro bottle shot of WS3...my camera couldn't handle the sparkly.

Elixir Lacquers can be purchased at elixirlacquers.com for $10 each, if you order 7 polishes you get the secret shade Buzzworthy for free (I believe it's a yellow color). I've gotten one of her secret shades before, Calypso, and it was gooooorgeous. WS3 is no longer sold, but With a K and Kind of Connery are a similar kind of ridiculous sparkly. She also just released her Lov-a-Bully collection and 10% of every bottle sold (or 20% if you order all 7 bottles) goes to the Atlanta Bully Rescue. I love this, the polishes are adorable and any intersection of dogs and polishes is right up my alley! Follow her Facebook page for more updates and swatches. Zoya of course can be purchased at zoya.com.
